we need to check if , if yes than a function is symmetric with respect to the origin
first find :

now

so, ...a function is not symmetric with respect to the origin

A graph is said to be symmetric about the if whenever (,) is on the graph then so is (,)
as you can see from a graph, there is no point such as because the graph is above
see it on a graph

A graph is said to be symmetric about the if whenever (,) is on the graph then so is (,)

(,) is (,), there is (,)

so, the graph of is symmetric with respect to the
